Spotify has launched a new feature called Page Match that lets readers move seamlessly between a physical or ebook and its audiobook. This feature builds upon the existing audiobook Recaps feature, which gives a quick audio summary to pick up from the section where you left off.
Page Match aims to solve a familiar frustration for readers who like to switch formats but keep losing track of the last page they read. Now, you can pick up a book, scan a page, and Spotify takes you straight to the matching moment in the audiobook. How Spotify’s Page Match feature works To use Page Match, open the Spotify mobile app and search for the book you are currently reading. Inside the audiobook listing, you tap the Page Match button, which activates your phone’s camera. Recommended Videos You then scan a page from your physical book, and Spotify analyzes the text on that page and matches it to the same section in the audiobook, starting playback from the correct spot. The feature also works in reverse. If you have been listening to an audiobook and want to switch back to reading, Page Match can guide you to the exact page where you left off. In practice, matching a page to the audiobook is fairly straightforward. However, switching back from audio to print can be trickier. Early use by The Verge shows that finding the exact page from audio is not always smooth, especially if editions differ. In some cases, it can mean flipping back and forth through pages and overshooting the right spot before settling in. Even with those rough edges, Page Match highlights Spotify’s effort to make audiobooks feel more connected to traditional reading, especially for people who regularly move between formats throughout the day. The music streaming giant has been rolling out a steady stream of updates lately to improve user experience. Just yesterday, Spotify announced offline lyrics with translation support and it has also been leaning on AI to reshape how podcast discovery works on the platform. With Page Match now joining the list, Spotify feels more intuitive across music, podcasts and books.
